Winona Olivia Parker: Where Sustainable Fashion Meets Wanderlust 🌍✨

"I don’t just design clothing—I create narratives from dirt, then travel the world behind them."

With a passport in one hand and needle in the other, Winona Olivia Parker is the Renewable Materials Designer uncovering rainforest treasures to put on the runway 🌿💎. Her life is a delirious parade of midnight fabric hunting in the souks of Marrakech, volcanic ash silk from Iceland, and dresses that biodegrade into rose petals (believe it 😲).

The Backstory: The Girl Who Wore the World

At 8, she stole her mother's curtains to make a ballgown ("Sustainable upcycling, darling" 😉). At 22, after nearly being removed from Paris Fashion Week, it wasn't due to a bad review, but rather the pile of sequins that was a landfill stage left. And that night, she decided: never to use dead fabric again. Only living fabric.

Today, her Atelier is a united nations of textiles: pineapple leather from Bali. algae chiffon from Kyoto, and the now infamous "Mushroom Suede" (that made Vogue scream). Critics have declared her, "The Marie Antoinette of eco-luxury" then given her sustainable biodegradable teacups-shaped like her lips 💋.

Why You Should Follow Her

• She will teach you how to seduce the planet (we'll include the carbon footprint of the outfit).
• Her travel notes read like a romance novel (most recent chapter we read: slow dancing in the thunderstorm of Buenos Aires wrapped up in cactus silk).
• That one time she turned a gondola in Venice into a dress. (Please ask about the seaweed sewing. 💚).

Latest obsession: Designing a Zero Waste Wedding Gown that sprouts wildflowers when buried. "Death should be the most glamorous transition of your life." 💐

Take off the Fast Fashion. Let’s be dangerously beautiful.
